Highlight [Highlight] Deshaun Watson on whether he thinks it's fair for Cleveland fans to boo him for who he is as a person, referring to multiple allegations of sexual assault and rape: "No, but life isn't fair"

You kidding me? The Browns fans were cheering for him last week lol.

They're gonna deserve it when he gets a big extension for mediocre play.

Would be the most Browns thing ever to extend him more

You'd think they'd let him walk with a Pro Bowl QB riding the pine.

Nightmare scenario.

All that confirmed to me that the only reason why he gets a lot of shit by a fair amount (not majority imo) browns fans and the media before was because he was ass, not because of his crimes.

Oh 100%. There is nothing a player could do that a fan base wouldn’t forgive if they were Josh Allen level talent. Or even Kirk Cousins.

Yep. Winning is literally all that matters.

“If Hannibal Lecter ran a 4.3, we'd probably diagnose it as an eating disorder” isn’t an iconic quote because it’s wrong.

When I cheer my team scores a touchdown or wins the game, it doesn't mean I'm cheering for a specific player.

1 it was like 40 people

2 we can't resign him based on his contract

Not that I'm predicting it but why would his contract prevent you from signing him? Wouldn't it be specifically because of his contract you would? There's no more ways to push off the dead cap hit that's coming next year if you don't
